As pointed out, the Viair compressor comes with a stainless steel hose that is required by the manufacturer and so is required by the Q&A.

When we purchased our 215 Thomas compressor, it came with a large U-shaped bracket and a rubber mounting gasket. We replaced the bracket with large hose clamp. We placed the clamp around a frame member and tightened it enough to where a student couldn't rotate it in the rubber gasket. It never moved after mounting.
